I tried this approximately 5 years ago. I entered India with a tourist visa because my business visa was rejected due to some formal reason, somehow i could get this tourist visa though. I tried to extend it by directly talking to the concerned authorities, and after that i asked some friends with "connections" to help me. However, it didn't work out, and also there was some reason why a trip to nepal would not have helped also, but i forgot why. I had to go back home to germany to get a new visa (this time a 5 years business visa 
).
As i said, this is five years ago, maybe things have changed.

The home ministry publishes a chart on visa provisions at http://mha.nic.in/fore.htm#vp
This source states that the tourist visa is not extendable in India, while the business visa is.
Hope this helps,
